The Story
Comme des Garçons Series 1: Leaves - Mint is a bold, green fragrance that captures the sharp, cool essence of mint leaves. It opens with a crisp burst of peppermint and spearmint, grounded by earthy galbanum and a touch of bitter wormwood. The heart reveals a subtle floralcy from geranium and clary sage, while the base stays clean with oakmoss and vetiver. This is mint like you've never smelled it before—raw, aromatic, and utterly unique.
